Assitance needed with texture

Trying to rename the textures so can use a texture from the VF-3 F6F on another F6F5. The model the paint job comes has issues with the VC panel not showing as well as sitting rather high up in VC, so cant fight or fly in VC view, which is the main view.Also having to delete US Pilot from the aircraft folder deletes pilots from other planes, so looks strange with bunch of empty planes flying around. I keep almost getting texture right but cant figure out which ones are which.

The VF-3 F6F5 by Captain Kurt is the texture.Trying to use the texture on the Allen F6F5 Late.Any help is appreciated.
 
You can remove the pilot from stock and most of my aircrat that use stock pilots by putting in this case the US_pilot_1.bmp and US_pilot_2.bmp into the F6F5_HELLCAT_LATE texture folder.

L_f6f3_hellcat_T.bmp L_f6f3_hellcat_D.bmp are for the left side of the aircraft

R_f6f3_hellcat_T.bmp R_f6f3_hellcat_d.bmp are for the right side of the aircraft.

If you trying to use a OH skin they will work just fine. Here is how to do renaim from OH F6F3 to my F6F5s )for both eary and late models)

Rename f6f3_hellcat_t.bmp to L_f6f3_hellcat_T.bmp. f6f3_hellcat_d.bmp to L_f6f3_hellcat_D.bmp

Rename f6f3_hellcat_r.bmp to R_f6f3_hellcat_T.bmp. f6f3_hellcat_b.bmp to R_f6f3_hellcat_d.bmp

The VC hight is set in the aircraft.cfg. Go to [Views] and change as needed. Numbers are in feet.

Thanks. Yes I am trying to take the skin from the VF-3 F6F and apply it to your F6F5 Late. Which is based on the OH F6F3 yes?
